The Wine Selection
Robert Mondavi 2008 Pinot Grigio
Light, fresh aromas of white peaches and honeydew. Very, very pale gold in color. Crisp, crunchy flavors of melon rind, lychee, peach, and hint of fresh cut grass. Very clean, fresh finish.
Brooks Wine 2007 'Amycas' White Blend
Immediate aromas of apricots, minerals, white flowers, melons, powdered sugar, white peaches, lime and kiwis. In the mouth, the attack is immediately driven by beautiful ripe acidity and tremendous minerality. Beautiful notes of honey and ripe apricots make for a lovely, long finish.
Montevina 2007 Chardonnay
Tropical fruits dominate the nose with banana, lemon, and citrus. Hints of sweet toasting oak, vanilla bean and fig fill in the palate. The balanced acidity, with just enough creaminess to add depth, finishes bright and plays nicey with food. $12/bottle
Brooks Wine 2007 Riesling
Aromas of orange and lime blossoms, almonds, white currants and chestnut honey all emerge with air to provide lovely background aromatics. On the attack the wine embodies minerality and sense of place. The flavors are the essence of crushed stone. This wine is about focus, intensity and elegance. The finish is long, crisp and clean.
Eyrie Vineyards 2007 Pinot Gris
Medium bodied wine with a yellow to copper-pink color and aromas of pear, apple, and/or melon. Yummy!
Bethel Heights 2008 Gewurztraminer
Floral aromas featuring orange blossom and roses with an under-lying current of citrus rind and minerality. Full yet crisp on the palate, developing lemon, mango and passion fruit flavors while retaining firm acidity and a great finish.
St. Innocent 2009 Pinot Gris
Aromas of baking spices, tangerine zest, and white peach. Smooth texture and intense on the palate. 90 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate.
Kunde 2008 Sauvignon Blanc
When you’re feeling a little warm you can enjoy a cool glass brimming with flavors of musky cantaloupe, exotic guava, and crisp grapefruit, with just a hint of fresh-mown grass to add complexity. Do yourself a favor and try this with some smoky grilled vegetables and shrimp skewers.
